This afternoon the mother of the child,
twenty years old, came to headquarters
and asked for her child. The founding

to the home of her betrayer,
William George Mangold. He was not
at home, but his parents were. The
girl, whose name is Mathilde X. Heb

They refused to support her babe, which
is the second child by their son. she al
leges, and left the babe Oh the floor and
left the house. The Mangolds put the
infant out and it was found as stated.

STRAY SVNREAMS.

This has not been ''boom" year for
st. Paul. and especially as it relates to
real estate and building. But with all
that, the building record exceeds that of
last year by S2,00O,OOO. Taking into con-
sideration all the conditions that gov
erned the building record of the year,
this is probably the most remarkable
showing a city ever made.

Last spring, just at the time when it
looked as if this city were going to have
a building "bOOm," came the labor
strike. That strike was fearful back
set to the city. Many persons who con-
templated building, and were making
their arrangements for it, were deferred
by the strike from going ahead. 1t is
safe to say that but for the strike from
1000 to 1000 more houses would have
been put up in st. Paul during the past
summer.

Now. want know to if he was justified
in it?' The GLOBE told the Old Citizen
that he thought the preacher was right,
provided there was no other equally
fOrcible term to be employed in giving
expression to his ideas. Some of our
slang words and sentences give force
and expression to ideas when nothing
else will fill the bill. 1t is with slang
as it is with secular music. There is
no reason why the devil should have
the exclusive use of the best of it.

Then later on came the financial de-
preston in the East, and some were i'll
iuenced by it to contract their building
operations. Thus circumstances seemed
to conSpire against this city's enjoying
the building 'boom" which seemed so
promising early in the season. Yet,
notwithstanding all these drawbacks,
the building statistics for the year foot
up over ELEVEN MILLIONS.

COLOSSAL STATUES.
The Imposing Figure Of Buddha In the
Asintic Town Of Banian.

The Imposing Figure Of Buddha In the
Asintic Town Of Bamian.
Bamian is on the road between Cabul
and Balkh. Afghanistan, where it crosses
the ParOpamisus range. The situation
is high, being some where about $500
feet above the sea. The rock is con.
glomerate, or pudding-stone, of which
there is high cliff in the valley. In
this q, an early period. probably during
the first centuries of the Christian era,
Buddhist monks eXcavatcd caves. These
are in large numbers ut Bamian, EEK
tending for miles," but there are n,l-
merous groups of caves besides, extend
ing northward along the road as far as
Halifax. Judging by the remains in
the Jclalabad Valley. these caves would
not be the only riharas. or mOnastries;
there would be built structures rs well.
When Hwen-Tsang, the Chinese pill
grim, visited Bamian, about $50 A. D..
he states that there were one thousand
monks ut it and ten converts. He de-
scribes Bantam as kingllOm; but now
we only know the spot from its caves
and great statues, which are remains
of Buddhism, and not, SO far rs is
known, the remains of any thing like
a capital city of a kingdom. The
statues are known in the present day as
Sal Sal and Shah Mameh, and the
Bacheh. or child.
There are five statues ut Bantam;
three of them are in inches. which have
been cut out. the figures being formed
of the rock within the niche. The
largest statue has been produced in
this way. Its size has been variOuslv
estimated by travellers, some putting it
at 100 feet, and others as high as $50
feet. Captain Talbot used theodolite
and found that all previous estimates
had been short of the truth. The fig
ure is 173 feet high. which lis only 20
feet lower than the London Monument,
the exact measurement of it being POP
feet. The Nelson Column in Trafalgar
Square is lie feet. just three feet
higher than the Bamian figure. and
thus giving almost an exact counter
part to its height. The Liberty"
statue at New York is 105 feet high. on
\ pedestal of SO feet, but the raised
hand and torch is 1877 feet high.
Hwen-Tsang distinctly states that it is
a figure of Buddha. This is of some
Importance, because it has been sug-
gested that the figures belonged to the
pre-BudhiSt period. Captain Matt
lands drawings are quite sufficient to
determine this point, and the Buddhist
character of the figures need no longer
be a question of doubt. There is The

Two Very Good Anecdotes In Regard to
James Russell Lowell.

Two Very Good Anecdotes In Regard to
James Russell Lowell.
T. W. Higginson is credited with
telling racy anecdote in regard tn
James Russell Lowell. According to
Mr.. Higginson, one of the Adirondack
guides expresses the opinion that Mr..
Lowell is ian ignorant cuss," and
backs up the characterization with this
bill of particulars:
"Well, / was out with him in canoe,
, and we were going down stream with
the current. and making first-rate time,
and he didn't know any better than to
insist that we should go over to the
other side of the stream just to get in
the shade of the bank out of the sun;
and we didn't get ahead ut all. Now
l call man that don't know enough to
take advantage of the current in .
canoe blamed ignoramus."
This same critical Adirondack guide,
or one of his professional brethren, fig
ures in another story, which is also told
at the expense of Mr.. Lowell's intel
ligence. Said the guide in question to
a gentleman whom he met in the woods
and who mentioned that he came from
Boston:
'.DO you know LOwell?'
whats his first name?''
"Jim.'
ado you refer to James Russell
Lowell. the poet?'
Eyes, that's him."
"Oh. yes. l know Mr.. Lowell very
well. and admire him greatly"
''Well, took to him, too. but with
regret in his tone] he's got one mi ghty
singular habit"
ITO what do You rcfer?''
''Well, he's written me several let
tiers, off and on. when he's been comm
up here, and he's monotonous
speller."
"a what?"
"A monotonous speller. I've always
noticed that in his letters to me Lowell
spells his words the same way ev'ry
time-I never Chicago Tribune.
